After all, within Han Leng's heart, he was still resisting Zhao Youyue. He had enough experience of crushing on someone. It was so uncomfortable. It turned him into someone he was not.
He had always considered himself a free-spirited and prideful person. No strings could hold him, until the period of time when he had a crush on the Zhao Youyue of his imagination. He would end up hesitating for almost half a day to even send her a message. That wasn't him!
He had managed to overcome the situation with the help of Goddess Chu. He recognized the true colors of Lady Zhao, and the mist was cleared from his eyes. His love for her vanished, only respect remained.

Tonicquill: Oh dear. Being a former (unintended trap) myself, this…is super cringe-worthy. I grew my hair out after high school.

The hair comes and goes, because I’m too lazy to comb my hair, that’s it. Much easier to tie it up, turns you from tramp to presentable in a second. It’s usually chin length, but it got to hip length during my rock band days, currently shoulder length (Not into man-buns either) I think, given how much I’ve rambled about it, you could tell that I take pride in its care.
